Hmmm...after a few years of working with slideshow software, I finally switched over to video editing software. I found that it could do everything I needed for slideshows, especially the time line editing and such. I would think that long term, slide show software would finally die out except for some very simple stuff, simply because the tools for still and video are largely the same.
So, for what it is worth, for the Mac you could always look at Adobe Premier Elements. -- Best regards, Bruce Monday, January 19, 2009, 6:13:53 AM, you wrote: A> Dear gang, A> I'm asking you this on behalf of a friend: A> On the Windows platform, there is software like Wings Platinum from A> AVstumpfl and ProShow Producer from Photodex.
